Analyses in a large clinical trial in hypertensive patients (SPRINT) and in the Cardiovascular Health study cohort coherently showed that the difference between the GFR as estimated by serum cystatin and creatine (eGFRDiff) associates with frailty and predicts a lower risks for adverse outcomes ...
and data on fasting glucose, hemoglobin, triglycerides, total cholesterol, high- and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C/LDL-C), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (calculated as reported previously [24]), uric acid and creatinine (calculated as reported previously [24]) are record...
The role of the difference and ratio of albuminuria (urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio, uACR) and proteinuria (urine protein-to-creatinine ratio, uPCR) has not been systematically evaluated with all-cause mortality. We retrospectively analyzed 2904 patie
There is no doubt that serum creatinine (Scr) concentration differs between ethnicities and sexes. We show that creatinine-based equations for white populations may be inaccurate for estimating GFR in other ethnic/gender groups, especially in populations from Asia. Methods This study presents a ...
Average creatinine clearance (CrCl), calculated by both total body weight and lean body mass, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were calculated for each group.ResultsOf the 686 TTEs reviewed, 18 patients fulfilled the criteria for diastolic heart failure and 118 patients had ...

Purpose: The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) based on creatinine is crucial for the risk assessment of contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI). In recent, the difference between cystatin C-based eGFR (eGFRcys) and creatinine-based eGFR (eGFRcr) has been widely document...

Urine albumin concen- tration was measured after a 24-h urine collection by immunonephelometry (Dade Behring, Marburg, Germany) and albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) was calculated. Insulin levels were measured with a microparticle enzyme immunoassay method (Abbott, Tokyo, Japan) and insulin ...
Rationale & objective: The clinical implications of the discrepancy between cystatin C (cysC)- and serum creatinine (Scr)-estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) are unknown. Study design: Post-hoc analysis of randomized...
